Improvement must be seen in tender (68 assessed joints) and swollen joint counts (66 assessed joints) and in at least 3 of the following 5 parameters: Separate patient and physician assessments of patient disease activity in the previous 24 hours on a visual analog scale (VAS, the left end of the scale "no disease activity" \[symptom-free and no arthritis symptoms\], right end of the scale "maximum disease activity"); patient assessment of pain in the previous 24 hours on a VAS (left end of the scale "no pain", right end of the scale "unbearable pain"); Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index (20 questions, 8 components: dressing/grooming, arising, eating, walking, hygiene, reach, grip, and activities, 0=without difficulty to 3=unable to do); and erythrocyte sedimentation rate.
Analysis population: All-exposure population: All participants who entered this study and received at least 1 dose of tocilizumab in either this extension study or in a core study. Only participants with available data were included in the analysis.
